The shooting was a drive-by, and investigators believe “up to four men” were in the vehicle that was used, said Saginaw Police Detective Sgt. Brent VanderHaar.

A vehicle that matched the description provided by an anonymous tip was in a traffic crash Thursday evening, VanderHaar said. The name of the female driver involved in the crash matched the name provided in the anonymous tip, VanderHaar said. The female is not believed to have a role in the homicide.

Following up on information from the crash and additional tips, police arrested one of the men in the vehicle Friday afternoon, VanderHaar said. Further investigation led police to two others who were at an area hotel, VanderHaar said.

Those three men were lodged at the Saginaw County Jail, VanderHaar said. The fourth man remains at large, VanderHaar said.

Officers executed six search warrants Friday, VanderHaar said, as the closed in on the suspects. The state police provided a helicopter that patrolled the city's East Side.

Jones was a former Saginaw resident who recently moved to Wisconsin with her father. Father and daughter were in Saginaw visiting a relative; the shooting occurred at Shawrone Jones' sister's house.

Witnesses took Jones to a Saginaw hospital before authorities arrived on scene, and she later died at the hospital.

Shawrone Jones was shot in the stomach and leg and remains in serious condition, VanderHaar said.

VanderHaar said the investigation is ongoing and that anybody with additional information can call him at 989-759-1598.

The death of Jones was the city's 19th homicide of the year, including three that have been ruled justifiable and a fourth that was the officer-involved shooting of Milton Hall. There have been 22 homicides in Saginaw County this year.
